Oaxaca, Mexico. April, 2019


This past March, when I learned that I was slated for a major surgical procedure in late April, I decided that not only would I immediately go on a trip to Mexico, but I would eat as many of the local specialties as I could. Seen here on the right, a dish of guacamole covered with fried grasshoppers, or chapulines. I can tell you that they are mostly crunch, no real flavor. And, mercifully, they are much smaller than the grasshoppers you may be used to, only about one inch long, maybe an inch and a quarter. Buen provecho.
